TORONTO — Despite playing the second-worst team in the Eastern Conference, the New England Revolution couldn’t generate much pressure in a 1-1 draw with Toronto FC Friday night at BMO Field.

The Revolution (10-9-7) are unbeaten in their last three matches, but wasted a golden opportunity to pick up three points, managing a scant seven attempts on goal and holding possession for less than 50 percent of the match.

New England is winless in seven trips to Toronto, but did earn a point to move into the fifth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Diego Fagundez quickly gave the Revolution a 1-0 lead in the second minute.

Kelyn Rowe, who came in with three goals in his last two matches, gained possession of the ball just inside Toronto’s half and made a nice run to the top of the penalty area, where he walked around defender Doneil Henry and thumped a shot off the back of defender Richard Eckersley. He collected his own rebound and slid a pass across the penalty area to a wide open Fagundez, who tapped it into the net for his team-leading ninth goal.

Fagundez nearly doubled the lead four minutes later, but Toronto goalkeeper Joe Bendik dived to get his fingertips on a right-footed shot before it curled outside the far post.

Andrew Wiedeman scored the tying goal for Toronto (4-12-10) off a scramble late in the first half.

Wiedeman’s strike came near the end of two minutes of first-half stoppage time. Eckersley sent a long free kick into the Revolution penalty area, where it bounced around before Henry, amid appeals for a handball from New England players, slipped a pass to Wiedeman for the goal.

Toronto captain Steven Caldwell appeared to have won it in the 88th minute when his header off a free kick slipped inside the far post, but referee Fotis Bazakos ruled he committed a foul on the play.

Rowe led New England with five shots and took two corner kicks; Toronto had six. New England’s next match is Sept. 8 at Gillette Stadium against Montreal.
